While the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Bat, Oman, is famous as an exceptionally large and well-preserved Early Bronze Age oasis settlement, the site’s archaeological landscape extends far beyond the oasis. The Bat Archaeological Project (BAP) aims to better understand the complex array of Umm an-Nar period (ca. 2700– 2000 BCE) cultural activity and human-environment interactions evidenced at the site and its environs in the Wadi al-Hijr. This paper presents the excavation results and preliminary interpretations of BAP’s winter 2022– 23 field season, which targeted three areas of suspected Umm an-Nar period settlement in the Bat landscape within a 10 km radius of the oasis: “Operation A,” al-Khutm Settlement, and Rakhat al-Madrh. In choosing to look beyond the site’s oasis center and examine ancient occupation in three geographically distinct areas within the ‘greater’ Bat landscape, this research sheds light on the diverse cultural processes and socioecological strategies practiced by the region’s Umm an-Nar period inhabitants.
